Ada (fine tuning) GPT-3
$0.0016When fine-tuning a GPT model like Ada, you are fine-tuning the GPT-3 base model (not the instruction-oriented variant of GPT-3). Fine-tuning involves taking the pre-trained base model and further training it on your specific dataset or task to enhance its performance. Fine-tuning allows OpenAI API customers to leverage the power of pre-trained GPT-3 language models, such as Ada, while tailoring them to their specific needs (the fine-tuning process allows a model to specialize in a specific task or context, making it more efficient and effective for a particular use case, which can help to reduce costs and latency for high-volume tasks). You are also able to continue fine-tuning a fine-tuned model to add additional data without having to start from scratch.As the smallest GPT-3 model, Ada is less computationally intensive and quicker, making it ideal for tasks that don’t demand complex language understanding or generation. Note: There are two fine-tuning costs to be aware of, a one-time training cost and a pay-as-you-go usage cost. -

Ada Instruct model
$0.004Open AI’s Ada is usually the fastest and lowest cost Instruct model. InstructGPT models are sibling models to ChatGPT. They are built on GPT-3 models but made to be safer, more helpful, and more aligned to users’ needs using a technique called reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF). Instruct models are meant to generate text with a clear instruction, and they are not optimized for conversational chat. Instruct models are optimized to follow single-turn instructions (e.g., specifically designed to follow instructions provided in a prompt). Developers can use Instruct models for extracting knowledge, generating text, performing NLP tasks, automating tasks involving natural language, and translating languages. The Instruct models also make up facts less often than GPT-3 base models and show slight decreases in toxic output generation. Access is available through a request to OpenAI’s API. -

Babbage (fine tuning) GPT-3
$0.0024When fine-tuning a GPT model like Babbage, you are fine-tuning the GPT-3 base model (not the instruction-oriented variant of GPT-3). Fine-tuning involves taking the pre-trained base model and further training it on your specific dataset or task to enhance its performance. Fine-tuning allows OpenAI API customers to leverage the power of pre-trained GPT-3 language models, such as Babbage, while tailoring them to their specific needs (the fine-tuning process allows a model to specialize in a specific task or context, making it more efficient and effective for a particular use case, which can help to reduce costs and latency for high-volume tasks). You are also able to continue fine-tuning a fine-tuned model to add additional data without having to start from scratch.Babbage is a medium-sized GPT-3 model. It offers a balance between processing power and computational requirements. It is more capable than Ada but less so than Curie or Davinci. Note: There are two fine-tuning costs to be aware of, a one-time training cost and a pay-as-you-go usage cost. -

BARD
FREEGoogle’s Bard is now powered by PaLM 2, the new powerful LLM launched in May 2023. PaLM 2 is trained on a massive dataset of text and code. Bard can generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. Bard is programmed to use the web to find the most recent answers to questions. This means that when you ask Bard a question, it will not only use its knowledge of the world to answer your question, but it will also use the internet to find the most recent information on the topic. This allows Bard to provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information possible (very cool).The exact billing structure for Bard is still under development (it is free to try at the moment) but you will likely be able to purchase tokens in bulk at a discounted price. According to Google, you may also be able to use tokens you have earned through other means, such as completing surveys or participating in beta testing programs. -

BERT
FREEBERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) was introduced in 2018 by researchers at Google AI. BERT uses AI in the form of natural language processing (NLP), natural language understanding (NLU), and sentiment analysis to process every word in a search query in relation to all the other words in a sentence, giving it a robust understanding of context and semantics. This pre-training process is incredibly powerful and the learned weights can be fine-tuned with just one additional output layer to create models for a variety of NLP tasks such as question answering and sentiment analysis. You can download the smaller BERT models for FREE from the official BERT GitHub page. -
